由如下的一段代码作为本篇文章的引子,也可以通过它看出在写代码时,注意数值转换的重要性。这段代码是将各种类型的数值与unsigned int -1值对比,请注意对比后的结果。
1 | #include <stdio.h> |
2 | |
3 | #define comp_printf(FIRST, SECOND) printf("LINE%02d: "#FIRST" %s "#SECOND"\n", __LINE__, FIRST == SECOND?"==":"!=") |
4 | |
5 | int main() |
6 | { |
7 | const unsigned int ui_pos = static_cast<unsigned int>(-1); |
8 | |
9 | char ci_pos_1 = ui_pos; |
10 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ci_pos_1); |
11 | char ci_pos_2 = static_cast<char>(-1); |
12 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ci_pos_2); |
13 | |
14 | unsigned char uc_pos_1 = ui_pos; |
15 | comp_printf(ui_pos, uc_pos_1); |
16 | unsigned char uc_pos_2 = static_cast<unsigned char>(-1); |
17 | comp_printf(ui_pos, uc_pos_2); |
18 | |
19 | short si_pos_1 = ui_pos; |
20 | comp_printf(ui_pos, si_pos_1); |
21 | short si_pos_2 = static_cast<short>(-1); |
22 | comp_printf(ui_pos, si_pos_2); |
23 | |
24 | unsigned short us_pos_1 = ui_pos; |
25 | comp_printf(ui_pos, us_pos_1); |
26 | unsigned short us_pos_2 = static_cast<unsigned short>(-1); |
27 | comp_printf(ui_pos, us_pos_2); |
28 | |
29 | unsigned long ul_pos_1 = ui_pos; |
30 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ul_pos_1); |
31 | unsigned long ul_pos_2 = static_cast<unsigned long>(-1); |
32 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ul_pos_2); |
33 | |
34 | long long ll_pos_1 = ui_pos; |
35 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ll_pos_1); |
36 | long long ll_pos_2 = static_cast<long long>(-1); |
37 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ll_pos_2); |
38 | |
39 | unsigned long long ull_pos_1 = ui_pos; |
40 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ull_pos_1); |
41 | unsigned long long ull_pos_2 = static_cast<unsigned long long>(-1); |
42 | comp_printf(ui_pos, ull_pos_2); |
43 | |
44 | return 0; |
45 | } |

上述代码在GCC3.3.4环境编译执行结果如下:
LINE10: ui_pos == ci_pos_1
LINE12: ui_pos == ci_pos_2
LINE15: ui_pos != uc_pos_1
LINE17: ui_pos != uc_pos_2
LINE20: ui_pos == si_pos_1
LINE22: ui_pos == si_pos_2
LINE25: ui_pos != us_pos_1
LINE27: ui_pos != us_pos_2
LINE30: ui_pos == ul_pos_1
LINE32: ui_pos == ul_pos_2
LINE35: ui_pos == ll_pos_1
LINE37: ui_pos != ll_pos_2
LINE40: ui_pos == ull_pos_1
LINE42: ui_pos != ull_pos_2
由上述的结果我们得出了一个结论,不同类型数字的对比,-1和-1并不都是相等的。究其原因就是对比数字需要将二者转换到同一种类型,而在转换过程中可能存在符号位扩展,由此导致值不尽相同的现象。
LINE25、27在对比前us_pos_1和us_pos_2的值都为0xFFFF,而ui_pos的值为0xFFFFFFFF。当unsigned short和unsigned int对比时,前者向后者的类型转换进行0扩展,也就是0x0000FFFF和0xFFFFFFFF对比,很显然二者是不相同的。
LINE20、22与LINE25、27的不同之处仅在于是它们无符号数,可结果为什么这么大的差别?在对比前si_pos_1和si_pos_2的值都为0xFFFF。当short和unsigned int对比时,前者向后者的类型转换进行1扩展,也就是0xFFFFFFFF和0xFFFFFFFF对比,所以对比的结果为真。
LINE35结果为真的原因是:在赋值时unsigned int 向 long long类型转换,进行0扩展,相当于ll_pos_1=0x00000000FFFFFFFF。在对比时unsigned int再次向long long类型转换,相当于0x00000000FFFFFFFF(us_pos转换后的结果)与0x00000000FFFFFFFF(就是ll_pos_1)对比,所以二者相同。
LINE37结果为假的原因是:在赋值时-1向long long类型转换,-1作为有符号数进行1扩展,相当于ll_pos_1=0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF。在对比时unsigned int向long long类型转换,相当于0x00000000FFFFFFFF(us_pos转换后的结果)与0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF(就是ll_pos_1)对比,显然二者不同。
由于存在类型转换,对比时如果使用了不恰当的数字类型,极有可能会与自己预想的结果不一样。比如下面的这种情况。
1 | std::string s_string("teststring"); |
2 | unsigned short us_pos = s_string.find("google"); |
3 | if (us_pos == std::string::npos) |
4 | printf("'google' is not found in 'teststring'\n"); |
5 | else |
6 | printf("'google' is found in 'teststring'\n"); |
我们先分析下各值的情况,一般情况下std::string::npos = (size_t)-1,而size_t一般为unsigned int类型。所以us_pos的初始值被赋为(unsigned int)-1,us_pos = 0xFFFF。在对比时us_pos向unsigned int类型转换,相当于0x0000FFFF(us_pos转换后的值)与0xFFFFFFFF(std::string::npos的值)对比。这时打印的信息是:'google’ is found in ‘teststring’。这个结果显然是不对的。正确的情况应该是:std::string::size_type pos = s_string.find(“google”);
